Never Let Her Slip Away Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I talked to my baby on the telephone long distance
I never would've guessed I could miss someone so bad, yeah
[Chrous]
I really only met her 'bout a week ago
But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart
I know that I love her
I'm hoping that I never recover
'Cause she's good for me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away
[Verse 2]
I feel like a kid with a teenage crush on a school day
(On a school day afternoon)
I feel like the lead in Romeo and Juliet, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm a little bit dizzy, I'm a little bit scared
I guess I never felt this much aware that I love her
I'm hoping that I never recover
'Cause she's good for me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away
I really only met her 'bout a week ago
But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart
I know that I love her
I'm hoping that I never recover
Yeah, she's good to me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away
I talked to my baby on the telephone long distance
I never would've guessed I could miss someone so bad, yeah
[Chrous]
I really only met her 'bout a week ago
But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart
I know that I love her
I'm hoping that I never recover
'Cause she's good for me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away
[Verse 2]
I feel like a kid with a teenage crush on a school day
(On a school day afternoon)
I feel like the lead in Romeo and Juliet, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm a little bit dizzy, I'm a little bit scared
I guess I never felt this much aware that I love her
I'm hoping that I never recover
'Cause she's good for me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away
I really only met her 'bout a week ago
But it doesn't seem to matter to my heart
I know that I love her
I'm hoping that I never recover
Yeah, she's good to me
And it would really make me happy
To never let her slip away
[Outro]
Mmm, I love her
I'm thinking that I never recover
Yeah, she's good for me
I know it's gonna make me happy
To never let her slip away
Oh, I know it's gonna make me happy
To never let her slip away
Mmm, I love her
I'm thinking that I never recover
Yeah, she's good for me
I know it's gonna make me happy
To never let her slip away
Oh, I know it's gonna make me happy
To never let her slip away

Never Let Her Slip Away was written and recorded by Andrew Gold for his third studio album All This and Heaven Too. Despite charting poorly in his native USA (number 67), the track fared better in the United Kingdom and Ireland, where it peaked at numbers five and two, respectively. Despite rumors that Queen frontman Freddie Mercury provided uncredited harmony vocals, producer Brock Walsh confirmed that this was sadly not the case, although he would have loved to have Freddie appear on it.
